Sore shoulders are not a real injury. He can have a sore shoulder from doing heavy military press. It's a tanking excuse. Yipeee!
Now watch some idiot start a thread tommorrow about how they don't like the Adelman's defense. It's going to go over somebody's head that the Rockets are shutting down their starters and Yao Ming is injured.
Well he's also been wearing that compression shirt with shoulder pad. Worrell mentioned it a few a games ago, he got hit/bumped i think, in the shoulder somehow..
excuse to play BUD and young players. celebrate and enjoy the tanking. Let's see what our Rooks can do!
Did you watch him try to play last night? He could barely raise his arm. You could see him deciding to pass on shots because he knew it would hurt too much for him to even aim straight. It's not tanking, it's preventing him from developing a serious shoulder injury. Hopefully it's not already too late.
Why are people so scared of tanking? oh nononon nono we are not tanking we are "resting" "developing" blah blah, you all sound like DD.
I think there is some difference in the Rockets situation considering they have actual young talent to develop and whose development could pay big dividends next season. Certainly, getting a high position in the draft is a great thing but so is having a more confident Chase Budinger and a more polished/experienced Jordan Hill.
tracy played on a sore shoulder for almost half a season before getting surgery. it's not something that really limits you. this is a good move by the organization. i want to see budinger more and see what he can do. this guy needs to get minutes.
It's clearly more than just sore. Like I said, you could see that he could barely lift it. I'm worried he has a bad strain or something.
To bad were playing the team most known for taking and having the most lottery picks ever the clippers
